Grime artist Aitch took to the stage for a secret gig for McDonald’s fansto mark the launch of MyMcDonald’s Rewards, the brand’s first ever rewards scheme. The set featured some of his biggest hits including 1989, In Disguise, Rain and Baby before Aitch jumped in the McFlurry van to dish out frozen treats.
Aitch said: “I had an unreal time helping launch MyMcDonalds Rewards in my hometown. I was gassed to perform for some of my biggest fans and loved jumping in the McFlurry van to help cool fans down in this mad weather. I can always rely on my city to bring it.”
McDonald’s is celebrating by teaming up with TV presenter Rylan to lead the ultimate ‘Rewards Squad’ featuring a star-studded cast of celebrities to embark on a tour of the UK, bringing a series of surprising moments to customers across the nation. Rylan will be leading the charge and sending the squad to different corners of the country to surprise people over the next two weeks.
